its like sports fans are just assholes, generally

Why are people so fixated on the suspension. Its the fucking draft picks and the two years of time wasted on that bullshit

If a Pats fan couldn’t see that their team was built to withstand missing even Tom Brady, they haven’t been paying attention to their own team.

Are you a Ravens fan? You sound like a Ravens fan.

None of what you are saying is untrue, Brady’s suspension probably didn’t hurt the Pats record in any material way and maybe he is fresher at this point. However, you’re missing a couple of aspects. People were deprived of seeing their best player for three home games (getting shut out in one of them). Wouldn’t you…

A football field worth of penalties and two fumbles still doesn’t even up the score. That’s math for you.

No effect? The NFL proved in FEDERAL COURT they can make up facts and screw their employees with no oversight.

Why on earth do people keep saying the Patriots have a Trump problem? I get it Kraft, Brady and Belichick are all on the record as friends/supporters. But... It’s fans are mostly liberal, it’s a highly liberal state and region of the country. Oh and uh last I checked the guy was the current president of the United…

False. You’re assuming Trump cares about anything other than himself.

If the Patriots win the Super Bowl, I bet Goodell won’t even have the balls to be down on the field to hand Kraft the trophy.

I’m curious. Usually, this type of rage against cheaters is reserved for those who feel that some type of unfair play contributed to unfair success.

What evidence?

I’m sure you mean New England’s NINTH Super Bowl appearance, not its seventh. It’s the seventh with Brady.

If you believe the Patriots are the only team thats ever cheated and that your favorite team isn’t one of them than you’re sucking on the Kool-Aid. Once Spy Gate ended it was open season to call them out on anything possible and people would believe it. Something breaks- Pats did it. Someone gets hurt- Pats did it…

I loathe Trump with the fire of a thousand burning suns, and it sickens me he’s in a position of power, but the day I give a shit what the pro athletes of my teams think in terms of politics is the day I stop watching sports. These guys ain’t smart or worldly, that’s not why I watch them.

Is that you, Matt Kensil?

No one except for you, who responded directly to him.

Same here. Holy hell has it been a pleasure as a Pats fan to watch this team for nearly a generation.

Don’t really want the pats to win but the thought of Goodell handing trophy and MVP to Brady (and hopefully Brady dressing him down) is awfully persuasive.

Bring on the hate, America.
